Stereotypes

[The Iron Ninja]

Apparently Vikings live in my country.
And it's in Europe.
And it's a region of England.
And Rugby is a sissy sport.

Yeah right. - Mad respect to whoever gets that.

I know that you can dance your way there from Old Zealand.
Forgoing any Mad respect to be had, I must say that Tui tastes terrible.
Absolutely bloody terrible.

In (sort of relation) to the above, A friend of mine went to America one time and was apparently asked on more than one occasion if New Zealand was that new type of sausage.
I don't know what to make of that.

I'm from Oregon and I'm not aware of any stereotypes attatched to it... But as an American I must be dumb, fat, loud, and lazy.

Australian so:

I live in a kangaroo
I have an annoying accent
I'm friendly but simple
I wear khaki
I have a large knife


...Americans freak out when they come here, they're like "So do you ride kangaroos to school?", it's annoying. And all of it's wrong, I hate animals, I speak with a Half Irish half city Australian accent, I'm an asshole and reasonably intelligent, I wear dark colors and think khaki is weird, though I must admit I like the knife idea...

Has anybody seen Crocodile Dundee?

I'm from Oregon and I'm not aware of any stereotypes attatched to it...

-Hunde Des Krieg has contracted Typhoid
-You shot several hundred bison, with a total of 7800 pounds of food, but could only carry 200 pounds back.
-Grueling pace adopted
-Meagre rations adopted
-Hunde Des Krieg was bitten by a snake
-Hunde Des Krieg has broken his arm
-Hunde Des Krieg has contracted Dysentery
-You have come to Smokey River crossing, 50 feet wide, 12 feet deep
-You chose to ford the river
-Your Wagon capsised
-Hunde Des Krieg has died from a combination of Typhoid, Snake bite, a Broken arm, Dysentry and drowning.

That's not really a stereotype, but as far as I'm concerned Oregon is some fairy tale land that only exists in video games.

I live in austria so:

- Obviously I live in the mountains (Not true. The town I live in is about 370 m over the sea level)
- I have an annoying accent (Kinda true. No, no it's very true if you compare it to the normal german language)
- I am good at skiing (I can't even do that)

Im a software engineer so:

- I don't have any friends (Not true. I have some very good friends and no I haven't met them online)
- I have glasses (True)
- I don't go outside (Not true. I have to go outside so I can get to work )
- I have no girlfriend (True but only because I don't want one right now)

You still earn your mad respect, even if you dislike Tui. I don't even drink alcohol. Their billboard signs are still quite memorable even so.

When I moved to Texas, my friend from Massachusetts asked me if we had a stable at our high school for the horses some kids rode next to the parking lot. I thought he was joking. He wasn't.

[stormcaller]

Australian that's lived in NZ for a long time now in Ireland-

apparently I have a funny accent, no joke I'm talking to Irish people and they tell me I have a funny accent (no offence to any Irish but the whole third becomes turd and three becomes tree thing pisses me off)
I've met a kangaroo and been punched by one
I own sheep back on my farm in NZ
I've had a worse education then the others
I like "fush and chups" (fish and chips)
I'm expected to greet people with a "G'day mate"
I'm helpless in cold weather (Canberra winters anyone)
I say to people when enquiring where they are "so where the bloody hell are ya?"

That's probably about it

 

[Lazzi]

I can only scuba dive. im a blatant republican. LIES ,LIES I TELL YOU!! I should have natuaraly tan skin. half truth, I look liek an eastern europen but i do tan amazingly.

 

[ZantetsukenQ]

British Asian (Yorkshire), with a Muslim background. The muslim stereotypes first

I have explosive tendancies - Not true, although chemistry lessons were cool when the evangelical christian teacher would shut the fuck up.

I travel everywhere via camel yelling "Ayayayayayaya" while swinging a Scimitar in the air - Not true, not even at a beach or abroad, and I own no weapons !

Trying to be "gangsta" and saying "innit" every sentence - So, so far from the truth. I am more metal than an anvil, and I tend to speak quite eloquently.

Trying to embrace chav culture and keep a closed mind to anything else - Untrue. I am so geeky and nerdy and love to embrace it.

Have short hair, with strange sports logo symbols shaved into my head, or failing that, strange lines - Not true, mah hair be long (see profile pic), and will get longer.

And with the brit stuff.

Love tea - It's true. Tea is teh roxxor.

Love football - I hate football .....

Hates the French - Not true. I got nothing against them.

Have a diet of "Fish N Chips" - While I do enjoy an occasional trip to the "chippy", its waaay too bad for you to have it everyday or too often. I am actually quite good at maintaining a balanced diet.. somehow.. and one that doesn't just consist of curries from the "old country"

Thats all I got for now.

 

[ianuam]

I'm from England. These stereotypes apply to me:
Archaic language - like the previous poster i too tend to say spiffing, on top of balderdash and other language more typical to the 19th century.
Emotionally reserved/stiff upper lip.
Also apparently i have a stereotypical English accent, also i'm ginger.
I come from a lower class family, although both my brother and i attend/have attended very good Universities and most of the family is pretty intelligent and well read.
